If the Republican legislators who passed this bill had backed comprehensive immigration reform, this wouldn't be an issue.
Don't try and blame the federal government for a shitty state bill. This is a naked power grab and it isn't about the police. The police have plenty to do busting people for crimes with actual victims. I don't like illegal immigration and we seriously need to make some legitimate progress in solving the problem. I just don't see how you can rationalize this bill as being any sort of good. On the bright side, I do hope that it spurs comprehensive reform at the national level. But that is still no excuse for the misuse of government represented by this bill.
